The term “subject” often confuses Japanese learners. One of the most important component of Japanese sentence structure is the topic. You mention the topic, then make a comment about it. But the problem is, the subject sometimes is the topic, but not always. In Japanese, people don’t construct a sentence like in English, “subject+verb+object”. It is very important to know that in Japanese the subject and the topic is different, you should erase the concept “subject” when you study Japanese. In the video, I will introduce to you the basic Japanese sentence structure so that you will know how to form natural Japanese sentences. They are VERY easy once you get the hang of it, there’s nothing complicated about it.
